Too Sensitive

Too much. Too emotional. Too sensitive. *A lack of response from a friend about weekend plans has you replaying every interaction, wondering if they’re pulling away. A short, blunt message from your manager leaves you convinced you’re in trouble, even if there’s no clear sign. Your partner is distant for a minute because he’s preoccupied with work, and you assume the relationship’s over.* From leading psychiatrist Dr Sasha Hamdani comes this groundbreaking, practical guide to an overlooked, frequently misunderstood phenomenon: Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria. Often, but not exclusively, found in people with ADHD, RSD is extreme emotional pain triggered by the perception of rejection or criticism. Blending psychiatry, neuroscience and her own lived experience, Dr Hamdani offers a clear explanation of the condition, and a questionnaire to assess your own level of emotional sensitivity. Her CALM YOUR MIND twelve-step protocol is a suite of tools, from Label Your Emotions to Understand Your Triggers, proven to help handle extreme emotion and spiralling. Too Sensitive also features an extensive rundown of real-life situations known to trigger RSD, covering relationships, work and career, friendships, family and self worth and sets out how to manage them, in the moment, using the CALM YOUR MIND tools, “Whether you’ve always known you were “sensitive” or you’re just beginning to understand it, this is your guide to turning that sensitivity into strength.” Most importantly, she provides practical, research-informed tools to help readers regulate emotional surges, interrupt spirals in real time, and build resilience in relationships, work, and identity. Insightful and validating, Too Sensitive challenges the narrative that equates sensitivity with fragility and instead positions emotional depth as a strength that can be understood, managed, and harnessed for growth.
